I just noticed that my HeliBoard icon in the list of apps has a green dot to the left of the name below the icon itself. I have no idea what it means -- it seems to be different form the privacy green dot you may get in the top notification area.

Also, I've noticed that when I type, not only do some things get underlined in red (I think it's for misspelling), but also in blue. Any idea what that means?

Thank you

The underlines are misspelling (red) and poor grammar (blue) just like they are in basically every word processor.

Couldn't tell you what the green is.

I think it means the app has a notification on the notification tray. If so, it's a feature of the launcher. Which one do you use?

Looks like it means I've either just downloaded or updated the app, and haven't opened it by clicking on the app icon since then

Red underline is indeed for spelling, and blue underline is like a grammatical error - sometimes I find that if I tap the words it will suggest changing the wording to include an "at" or some other word that I left out.

Don't know about the green dot, though, sorry!

What OS are you on? I use HeliBoard for a few Months now, and have never seen this.
